Wednesday, February 18, 2015 Posts Lost: Hey Dave,

So if I understand right,
every post made on Wednesday, February 18,
is now lost and gone for good,
and cannot be recovered.

Is that right ?

- Ed


We're back after a long night.
The long and short of it is that
we lost our database to an un-repairable state
and had to recover from Tuesday night's backup.

Unfortunately, all of the user posts
between Tuesday night and this morning
were lost as a result,
as well as any new boards, new marks added or removed,
and most other data changes.

Sorry about that. Carry on.
And good night, er morning.. er,
whatever it is. zzzzzz

P.S.

Henceforth, "We don't speak of Wednesday."

Dave, appreciate the hard work, I am a freeloading freebie and check my settings and noticed I only have 4 posts left and have not made one today, except this one.

You guys may need to take a look at this issue

EDIT: mine have since been reset

Do you replicate/backup during the day?
Any real time mirroring?
Any fault tolerance systems in place?

Good luck.

The real question is what is the cost to have a site wide crash so as to eliminate dissenting posts on a message board?

LOL.

"IR Services include Simulating a site wide crash to eliminate negative posts about your company: Cost $5,000

But 5 Get 1 Free!

2 Free years of premium membership with each purchase."

Not sure if funny or possible legitimate service to be provided.

I would accept a 25% royalty for the first 100 times it's used. So, if you want to do it, I will graciously accept a royalty check.

At this time I do not accept micro penny stocks as a form of payment.

There was an old hermit named Dave
Operated all of I-Hub from his cave
As the day came to a close
White powder flew up his nose
Causing him to hit delete instead of save

Thank you for telling us what happened!

I noticed many posts were missing on our board including one of my own but they didn't show up even in the moderators "manage" section as being deleted. It was like they just disappeared somewhere into space! So as it turns out, it looks like they did really disappear. Now I know that I am not crazy. OK, well I guess that part can be debated. :) Anyway, thanks again for informing us! Not a big deal at all. It is nice to know what happened.
